Important Technical Note for Parents

This browser version of Komodo uses a plugin technology called Adobe Flash. This year Google and Microsoft stopped embedding Flash into their Chrome and Internet Explorer browsers which means you’ll have to manage installing and updating Flash Player yourself. You can do this here.

but we've made a better way to use Komodo on your computer . .

New Komodo Windows and Mac apps (programs) are now available to download and install on your computer. These apps don't require Flash and they provide a better experience all round. Simply install and log in!

Build a paper-toy Komodo competition

At Komodo we love our paper-toys - they're cool and kids love making them. There's a maths angle too - in seeing how a 2D plan folds into a 3D shape. Now we've taken this to a new level, thanks to Niall our very own paper-toy master craftsman. We've made a Komodo paper-toy and we're asking you to build it and enter our competition.

Update: The official competition has now closed, but you can still print out and build your own Komodo (parents, this could make for a fun wet day activity!).

We'd love to see what you make and what your Komodo gets up to, so post your photos and tell us a little about your Komodo on our Facebook page or email them to hi@komodomath.com.

Instructions

We've tried to make the paper-toy super easy to build, and our test builders, aged 9 and 7, managed okay - with a little grown up help. The amount of grown up help, of course, depends on age and how "crafty" your child is in cutting and sticking the model - a good look at the Komodo photos before making helps.

About Komodo - Komodo is a fun and effective way to boost primary maths skills. Designed for 5 to 11 year olds to use in the home, Komodo uses a little and often approach to learning maths (15 minutes, three to five times per week) that fits into the busy routine. Komodo users develop fluency and confidence in maths - without keeping them at the screen for long.
